Here's a tough one for you lot. Out of all the Friends episodes which single comedy moment sticks in your mind, and is still funny years later?

To start it off, mine is the look on Joey's face in the girls apartment when he suddenly discovers that Chandler and Monica are lovers-lucky Chandler-because of a missing eyelash curler. As just happened on Channel 4 here in England

When Chandler finds out that Joey's been using his toothbrush. Something like: Joey: "How come we can't use the same toothbrush, but we can use the same soap?" Chandler: "It's soap! It's self cleaning!" Joey: "Besides I had to use your toothbrush to unclog the drain!" Chandler: "Can open. Worms everywhere."

We've had favorite Friends moments threads before. A few things that come to mind

(1) In the very first episode, Phoebe cheering Rachel up with her rendition of "A Few of My Favorite Things".

(2) Chandler in the bathtub with Monica submerging when Joey comes in. "Chicken? I would like some chicken."

(3) Monica as "crazy plate lady".

(4) Rachel borrowing a cellphone in a restaurant to call Ross to tell him she was glad they had broken up (that one is a while ago).

I like the part in episode 907 When Chandler and Joey are in Richards Apartment and they find the tape but Joey doesn't put it together untill after Chandler says "Get there faster!" I laugh everytime I see that part...

^^^^^^^^^^ But wasn't that _before_ Ross and Rachel were together? She told him (or rather his answering machine) that she was "over him", and that's how Ross learned about Rachel's liking him. Miriel

Yes, my description was inaccurate. I got a kick out of the way Rachel badgered some bystander to lend her the phone, used it to harangue Ross, then flung it into an ice bucket. Rachel did not seem like a nice character, but Jenifer Aniston did a great job with her.

Now that everyone's overdosed on Teletubbies, Christopher had a cracker and said:

This is a near impossible to answer question, there are so many.... Here's a few I can think of right now:

- Joey & Ross talking dirty - Dee, the sarcastic sister from 'what's happening?' - could I BE wearing anymore clothes? - the teaser of 208 - when they have the flashback of all the J+C hugging and then they say "do we do this too often?"

There are tons more, but these are the ones that came straight to my mind

Just remembered another one: Oh, no. Two women love. They're both gorgeous and sexy. My wallet's too small for my fifties AND MY DIAMOND SHOES ARE TOO TIGHT! :-)

I LOVE this one. Also the videotape with Chandler singing "Space Oddity" with an Eiffel Tower figurine for a mic just cracks me up.

Although not what i'd call a stand out comedy moment I always thought that Chandler's 'Who's Number 2?' joke was hilarious, and there didnt seem to be much of a laugh coming from the audience. Of course, its all edited together and whatnot but it always bugged me as I thought it was a fantastic line :)

Ross: I, uh, I also need two. Monica: Really? Who's number two? Chandler: Whose number two? One of the more difficult games sewer workers play.

As series 10 will probably be the last, the writers will be working on giving each character a suitable exit. What exit would you like to see for each member of the cast. Here's mine:

R & R finally get married properly and live with baby happly ever after.

C & C move to the west coast, after Chandler gets a promotion due to him doing such a good job in the mid-west.

Phoebe gets a singing contract, and meets Mr Right and gets engaged.

Joey finally makes the big time, and his career takes off when he co-stars in a hit movie.

I think that the only exit planned for the six friends is to show that they all will live together happily ever after, with the moving out form NYC explained in the eventual spin-offs.

R&R will definately get together, but they won't necessaryli get married during the series. I think that for them it'll end with words like: it has always been you Rachel/I have always loved you/I've been in love with you since the moment i met you/ I don't want to live your side ever again.

C&M will anounce that M is pregnant and they are starting a family, with Chandler having found a new job that will give him enough free time to spend with their kid.

P. will find herself a guy equally weird and funny as herself.

And Joey will be shot into stardom after his "bad acting" will be taken as purposeful thing.

Basically what I imagine for the last scene in the series will be all 6 of them making a toast "to Friendship", and then cut to clips for the previous show where the all 6 of them are hugging etc.

But as there are still not-proved gossips about the "friends" movie, maybe it will end completely different.

I want to see a scene 20 years from now, where Gunter is married and is in the back yard of his suburban home, working the barbecue. His lovely wife, Janice, enters with a plate of hot dogs.
